Well Ed, if that dates you, it dates me, too. I happen to have a  
computer in my ham shack, but it isn't actually connected to any  
radios. Maybe I'll connect it for Echolink, or something, but...for  
19 years, my radios have been very separate from my computers, and I  
think it'll probably stay that way, for the most part. Thee whole  
idea of software-defined radios is intriguing, but I sure don't want  
to have to be leashed to a computer just to use a radio.
